Documentation Update: Handling Console Messages when Running an Application under ETSO. Using the DIVERT command.

Answer:

Messages normally seen on the master console may not be seen when an application runs under Advantage CA-Roscoe Interactive ETSO Environment. An application may appear as if it is hung, when it is really waiting for a tape mount or an operator's response from a message that an operator cannot see.

To avoid this problem, the user should divert WTP's to the master console using the Advantage CA-Roscoe DIVERT command. The following RPF can be used as a sample RPF to divert WTP and to initiate an application.
